Question

Jennie has $200 and spends $30. What percent did Jennie spend?

Answer 1

she spent 15% because 30 is 15% of 200

200x15%= 30

Answer 2

30$ is 15% of 200$

Explanation:

To find how much percent Jennie spent let's first find how much one percent of $200 is.

∴200/100=2

so one percent of 200 is 2

now let's find how much percent 30$ is of 200$

∴30/2=15

meaning that 30$ is 15% of 200$
